description | Polish hounds, an old breed of hunting dogs reconstructed in the 50s, illustrate the history of naturoculture. Like Donna Haraway’s cyborgs, Polish hounds transgress three binary oppositions. Firstly, they transgress the boundary between reality and fiction, as the dogs’ physical bodies are co -created by cultural narrations. Secondly, Polish hounds are a product of selective breeding, so they transgress the boundary between nature and culture. Finally, the boundary between nature and technology is blurred. Their bodies are object of technological interventions and scientific research that are to enable their further existence. In addition, Polish hounds and their people encourage reflection on human -animal collectives, where human and non -human lives are interconnected. The dogs and humans provide example of co -existence and embodiment of trans -species solidarity and thus they create a starting point of thinking about post -humanist connections and collectives. |
